§ 8. Apart from the above two diphthongs, ai and cu, there were other combinations of vowels, but it would appear that in these each element was kept distinct, and in deliberate pronunciation it seems a glide y or w came in and kept them wholly apart, preventing combination into a diphthong. The following vowel combinations are noted:
